i remember being in kindergarten and watching the clock tick and learning how to tell time, in terms of clock and date

and one question i asked is whether we can travel in time like we can travel through space

specifically, once the time passes, can we travel backwards

one of the earliest movies i saw on this is Back to the Future

other stories involving time traveling include Terminator, Star Trek, X-men animated series, Outer Limits, and most recently, Kung Fu Panda. Po finds seeds that lets him travel backwards in time, but in the wrong hands, of a bad owl, she goes back in time to prevent the parents of his friends from ever meeting.

So I spent some time reading what other thinkers have said about time. About McTaggart's theory of A-time vs B-time, eternalism, presentism, 4 dimensionalism vs 3 dimensionalism, Einstein and the theory of relativity, time in quantum mechanics as well as time in string theory. Time and thermodynamics.

Time is considered a dimension like space, but the properties of time is very different from the properties of space.

Time, though can be represented as a spatial line, in physics.

So here's my theory of Time and its relation to space, at the quantum level, quantum geometrical level.

Space is described by 3 real numbers and has 3 real dimensions, length, width and height, measured in meters, the the product is a real number volume measured in meters cubed.

We measure time that we experience as a real number, measured in units of time or seconds.

What time is at a fundamental level, is a Kaluza Klein extra dimension, but is the product of an imaginary number.

An imaginary number is the square root of -1 and is called i.

sqrt -1 = i

so i squared i^2 = -1

Kaluza Klein theory, an important part of string theory, is that in addition to the 3 large spatial dimensions, there are additional hidden dimensions, 9 in string theory, that are curled up. These dimensions are real dimensions.

In my theory, there are 3 large spatial dimensions, and each spatial dimension has an additional imaginary dimension, described by i.

so with length there is another dimension i, width there is another dimension i, with height there is another dimension i.

Stephen Hawking spoke of imaginary time. time and an imaginary number. My theory differs from his in that time is itself described in terms of imaginary numbers that represent dimensions having imaginary degrees of freedom.

so mathematicians and physicists working on a theory of everything, if my theory is correct, need to work out the geometry of a 6-dimensional 3-real 3-imaginary kaluza klein like theory, and re-write the standard model and general relativity in terms of this space

but yeah why is travel in space easy, just move your finger, but travel in time, esp backward in time, impossible?

I don't think its impossible but I also don't think its going to work in the typical way it has always been presented.

If the universe is some sort of simulation(and that's looking to be the case), we're gonna be able to go backwards and forwards at any point. it'll be like rewinding or fast forwarding a VHS tape.

AI is absolutely frightening. A few defense contractors are clients and I've talked with some people and some of the things I've heard are mindblowing.

In 2013 at a Christmas party I attended we were all drinking and just carrying on in general. One guy told us that something is coming within a decade that is going to transform our lives and have a bigger impact than the internet. A good conversation starter no doubt and it turned into a guessing game on what it's gonna be. I knew he would never tell even if someone was right.

The funny thing is several of those guesses were probably right. A lot of things are coming within a decade. We're at a strange moment of history. The transhuman era is fast approaching. We're also going to see the death of paper currency in our era. The system is ready for this and has been for years.
